Math 0300 Addition and Subtraction of Integers Integers are the negative numbers, zero, and positive numbers Addition of integers An integer can be represented or graphed on a number line by an arrow. An arrow pointing to the right represents a positive number. An arro w pointing to the left represents a negative num ber. The absolute value of the number can be determined by counting the distance to zero, or by counting the distance between numbers in the arrow. The integers 5 and –4 are shown on the number line in the figure below. Example: +5 -4 -8 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Example: Another example of integers or positive and negative numbers is used with a checking account or dealing with money. A deposit to your checking account or pocket is an example of an addition called a positive integer (number or amount); a deduction or expense is an example of a negative integer (number/amount). If there is a balance of $25 in a checking account, and a check is written for $30, the account will be overdrawn/overspent by $5. The sum of two integers can be shown on a number line. To add two integers, find the point on the number line corresponding to the first addend (integer). The sum is the number directly below the tip of the arrow. Example: +2 4 + 2 = 6 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 -2 -4 +(-2) = - 6 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 +2 -4 + 2 = -2 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Student Learning Assistance Center - San Antonio College 1 Math 0300 -2 4 + (-2) = 2 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 The signs of the addends can categorize the sums shown above. The addends have the same sign. 4 + 2 = 6 positive 4 plus positive 2 equals 6 -4 + (-2)= -6 negative 4 plus negative 2 equals –6 The addends have different signs. -4 + 2 = -2 negative 4 plus positive 2 equals negative 2 4 + (-2) = -6 positive 4 plus negative 2 equals positive 2 The rule for adding two integers depends on whether the signs of the addends are the same or different. Rule for Adding Tw o Integers: TO ADD INTEGERS WITH THE SAME SIGN, add the absolute values of the numbers. Then attach the sign of the addends. TO A DD IN TEGE RS W ITH D IFFER ENT S IGNS, find the ab solute values of the numbers. Subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger absolute value. Then attach the sign of the addend with the largest value. Examples: Add: (-4) +(-9) = -13 -14 + (-47) = - 61 6 + -13 = - 7 162 + (-247) = -85 -8 + 8 = 0 Note: in the last example we are adding a number and its opposite –8 + 8 = 0. The sum of a number and its additive inverse is always zero. Student Learning Assistance Center - San Antonio College 2 Math 0300 The properties of addition of whole numbers hold true for integers too. The Addition Property of Zero a + 0 = a or 0 + a = a The Commutative Property of Addition a + b = b + a The Associative Property of Addition (a + b) + c = a + (b + c) The Inverse Property of Addition a + (-a) = 0 or -a + a = 0 Add: (-4) + (-6) +(-8) + 9 Add the first two numbers (-4) + (-6) = (-10) Add the sum to the third number (-10) + (-8) = (-18) Continue until all the numbers have been added (-18) + 9 = -9 Example: Add the five changes in price of stock: -2 + (-3) + (-1) + (-2) + (-1) = (-5) + (-1) +(-2) + (-1) = (-6) +(-2) + (-1) = -8 + (-1) = -9 The change is – 9. This means that the price of the stock fell $9 per share. Example: Evaluate –x + y when x = -15 and y = -5. -x + y Replace x with –15 and y with –5 -(-15) + (-5) Simplify –(-15). =15 + (-5) Add = 10 Student Learning Assistance Center - San Antonio College 3 Math 0300 Example: Is – 7 a solution of the equation x + 4 = - 3? Replace x by - 7 and then simplify. –7 + 4 = -3 -3 = -3 The results are equal. –7 is a solution of the equation. Subtraction of integers Recall that the sign – can indicate the sign of a number, as in –3 (negative 3), or can indicate the operation of subtraction, as in 9 – 3 (nine minus three). Subtraction of integers can be written as the addition of the opposite number. To subtract two integers, rewrite the subtraction expression as the first number plus the opposite of the second number. Some examples are shown below. First number - second number = First number + opposite of the second number 8 - 15 = 8 + (-15) = -7 8 - (-15) = 8 + 15 = 23 -8 - 15 = -8 + (-15) = -23 -8 - (-15) = -8 + 15 = 7 Rule for Subtracting Two Integers To subtract two integers, add the opposite of the second integer to the first integer. This can be written symbolically as a - b = a + (-b). Subtract (-15) – 75 Rewrite the subtraction operation as he sum of (-15) - 75 the first number and the opposite of the second = (-15) + (-75) number. The opposite of 75 is - 75. = - 90 Add. When subtraction occurs several times in an expression, rewrite each subtraction as add ition of the opposite and then add. Student Learning Assistance Center - San Antonio College 4 Math 0300 Subtract : -13 - 5 - (-8) -13 - 5 - (-8) Rewrite each subtraction as addition of the Opposite. = -13 + (-5) + 8 = -18 + 8 Add. = - 10 Student Learning Assistance Center - San Antonio College 5.

    Integer Linear Programs

    20 ________________________________________________________________________________________________ Integer Linear Programs Many linear programming problems require certain variables to have whole number, or integer, values. Such a requirement arises naturally when the variables represent enti- ties like packages or people that can not be fractionally divided — at least, not in a mean- ingful way for the situation being modeled. Integer variables also play a role in formulat- ing equation systems that model logical conditions, as we will show later in this chapter. In some situations, the optimization techniques described in previous chapters are suf- ficient to find an integer solution. An integer optimal solution is guaranteed for certain network linear programs, as explained in Section 15.5. Even where there is no guarantee, a linear programming solver may happen to find an integer optimal solution for the par- ticular instances of a model in which you are interested. This happened in the solution of the multicommodity transportation model (Figure 4-1) for the particular data that we specified (Figure 4-2). Even if you do not obtain an integer solution from the solver, chances are good that you’ll get a solution in which most of the variables lie at integer values. Specifically, many solvers are able to return an ‘‘extreme’’ solution in which the number of variables not lying at their bounds is at most the number of constraints. If the bounds are integral, all of the variables at their bounds will have integer values; and if the rest of the data is integral, many of the remaining variables may turn out to be integers, too.

    INNER PRODUCT SPACES AND THE GRAM-SCHMIDT PROCESS A. HAVENS 1. The Dot Product and Orthogonality 1.1. Review of the Dot Product. We first recall the notion of the dot product, which gives us a familiar example of an inner product structure on the real vector spaces Rn. This product is connected to the Euclidean geometry of Rn, via lengths and angles measured in Rn. Later, we will introduce inner product spaces in general, and use their structure to define general notions of length and angle on other vector spaces. Definition 1.1. The dot product of real n-vectors in the Euclidean vector space Rn is the scalar product · : Rn × Rn ! R given by the rule n n ! n X X X (u; v) = uiei; viei 7! uivi : i=1 i=1 i n Here BS := (e1;:::; en) is the standard basis of R . With respect to our conventions on basis and matrix multiplication, we may also express the dot product as the matrix-vector product 2 3 v1 6 7 t î ó 6 . 7 u v = u1 : : : un 6 . 7 : 4 5 vn It is a good exercise to verify the following proposition. Proposition 1.1. Let u; v; w 2 Rn be any real n-vectors, and s; t 2 R be any scalars. The Euclidean dot product (u; v) 7! u · v satisfies the following properties. (i:) The dot product is symmetric: u · v = v · u. (ii:) The dot product is bilinear: • (su) · v = s(u · v) = u · (sv), • (u + v) · w = u · w + v · w.

    Rotation matrix - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Page 1 of 22 Rotation matrix From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In linear algebra, a rotation matrix is a matrix that is used to perform a rotation in Euclidean space. For example the matrix rotates points in the xy -Cartesian plane counterclockwise through an angle θ about the origin of the Cartesian coordinate system. To perform the rotation, the position of each point must be represented by a column vector v, containing the coordinates of the point. A rotated vector is obtained by using the matrix multiplication Rv (see below for details). In two and three dimensions, rotation matrices are among the simplest algebraic descriptions of rotations, and are used extensively for computations in geometry, physics, and computer graphics. Though most applications involve rotations in two or three dimensions, rotation matrices can be defined for n-dimensional space. Rotation matrices are always square, with real entries. Algebraically, a rotation matrix in n-dimensions is a n × n special orthogonal matrix, i.e. an orthogonal matrix whose determinant is 1: . The set of all rotation matrices forms a group, known as the rotation group or the special orthogonal group. It is a subset of the orthogonal group, which includes reflections and consists of all orthogonal matrices with determinant 1 or -1, and of the special linear group, which includes all volume-preserving transformations and consists of matrices with determinant 1.

    LINEAR ALGEBRA MATH 2700.006 SPRING 2013 (COHEN) LECTURE NOTES 1 Sets and Set Notation. Definition 1 (Naive Definition of a Set). A set is any collection of objects, called the elements of that set. We will most often name sets using capital letters, like A, B, X, Y , etc., while the elements of a set will usually be given lower-case letters, like x, y, z, v, etc. Two sets X and Y are called equal if X and Y consist of exactly the same elements. In this case we write X = Y . Example 1 (Examples of Sets). (1) Let X be the collection of all integers greater than or equal to 5 and strictly less than 10. Then X is a set, and we may write: X = f5; 6; 7; 8; 9g The above notation is an example of a set being described explicitly, i.e. just by listing out all of its elements. The set brackets {· · ·} indicate that we are talking about a set and not a number, sequence, or other mathematical object. (2) Let E be the set of all even natural numbers. We may write: E = f0; 2; 4; 6; 8; :::g This is an example of an explicity described set with infinitely many elements. The ellipsis (:::) in the above notation is used somewhat informally, but in this case its meaning, that we should \continue counting forever," is clear from the context. (3) Let Y be the collection of all real numbers greater than or equal to 5 and strictly less than 10. Recalling notation from previous math courses, we may write: Y = [5; 10) This is an example of using interval notation to describe a set.

    THE NUMBER OF © -SIGN TYPES Jian-yi Shi Department of Mathematics, East China Normal University Shanghai, 200062, P.R.C. In [6], the author introduced the concept of a sign type indexed by the set f(i; j) j 1 · i; j · n; i 6= jg for the description of the cells in the affine Weyl group of type Ae` ( in the sense of Kazhdan and Lusztig [3] ) . Later, the author generalized it by defining a sign type indexed by any root system [8]. Since then, sign type has played a more and more important role in the study of the cells of any irreducible affine Weyl group [1],[2],[5],[8],[9],[10],[12]. Thus it is worth to study sign type itself. One task is to enumerate various kinds of sign types. In [8], the author verified Carter’s conjecture on the number of all sign types indexed by any irreducible root system. In the present paper, we consider some special kind of sign types, called ©-sign types. We show that these sign types are in one-to-one correspondence with the increasing subsets of the related positive root system as a partially ordered set. Thus we get the number of all the ©-sign types indexed by any irreducible positive root system Φ+ by enumerating all the increasing subsets Key words and phrases. © -sign types, increasing subsets, Young diagram.

Chapter 1 Introduction You sitting in an airplane at night, watching a movie displayed on the screen attached to the seat in front of you. The airplane gently banks to the left. You may feel the slight acceleration, but you won’t see any change in the position of the movie screen. Both you and the screen are in the same frame of reference, so unless you stand up or make another move, the position and orientation of the screen relative to your position and orientation won’t change. The same is not true with respect to your position and orientation relative to the frame of reference of the earth. The airplane is moving forward at a very high speed and the bank changes your orientation with respect to the earth. The transformation of coordinates (position and orientation) from one frame of reference is a fundamental operation in several areas: flight control of aircraft and rockets, move- ment of manipulators in robotics, and computer graphics. This tutorial introduces the mathematics of rotations using two formalisms: (1) Euler angles are the angles of rotation of a three-dimensional coordinate frame.

    Operations with Integers Sponsored by The Center for Teaching and Learning at UIS What are integers? Integers are zero and all the positive and negative whole numbers. When you first begin to work with integers, imagine a tremendously large line that extends infinitely left and right. Now, directly in front of you is a spot on that line we will call the center and label it zero. To the left are all the negative numbers and to the right all the positive. -10 -9 -8 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Adding Integers -30 01 Integers with the Same Sign `0 Adding integers that have the same sign is pretty straightforward. Add the two numbers together and maintain the sign. Example: Both numbers are positive so we add the numbers together and number remains positive. Example: Both addends are negative, so we add them together and maintain the negative sign. Integers with Different Signs When adding integers with different signs, ignore the signs at first and subtract the smaller number from the larger. The final sum will maintain the sign of the larger addend. Example: Since we are adding two numbers with different signs, ignore the signs and we are left with 3 and 8. The number 3 is smaller than 8 so we subtract 3 from 8 which give us 5. Of the two addends, 8 was the larger and was positive, so the final sum will be positive. Thus, our final sum is 5. Example: In this example, when we ignore the signs, the number 50 is greater than 18.

Consequently, mathematical language presents interpreters with a unique set of challenges. This article characterizes those aspects of mathematical grammar that are peculiar to the subject. (A discussion of mathematical vocabulary and its expression in ASL can be found elsewhere (Tabak, 2014).) An increased awareness of the grammar of mathematical language will prove useful to those interpreters for the deaf and deaf mathematics professionals seeking to express higher mathematics in ASL. In this article one will, for the first time, find a model of mathematical language created for interpreters that identifies those aspects of the language that must be retained in any accurate interpretation.
